Abstract

The myxomas are the most common primary cardiac tumours. The majority of them are benign and can be an incidental finding or be almost asymptomatic. The symptoms depend on their location, with the most common being the left atrium, which carries an increased risk of clots. The main effects of the clots are on the central nervous system, but occasionally they can involve the respiratory, peripheral, or coronary system.
The case of a 30-year-old patient without comorbidities with left atrial mixoma, which is manifested by ischemic stroke, is presented.
